May be stupid question..

How do you pull in wingsuit - one ore two-hand's moving?
and why?

ore das'nt matter?

Based solely on watching videos and thinking:

2 Hands, because it keeps body symmetrical

One hand, pitch and keep on flying.

How many wingsuit jumps ya got Tom?

Agree that what Sinister wrote "One hand, pitch and keep on flying" ...but not with little experience!
If you are current with your opening moves that works well...

How many wingsuit jumps ya got Tom?

Zero
But I copped to that right off the bat.

Really guys? 1 hand is really the way?
Ok, you all would know better than me.

I do have 600 jumps in camera wings
but know definitely not the same thing.

Giving advice based on watching videos might be something you should reconsider.

I use two hands. Just make sure to pull high.

 

 

epic post

I believe Jimmy from Apex described the method he uses as maintaining flight, reaching back with both hands and touching his fingers beneath container, grabbing pc and pulling, then returning symetrically to flight. (i have 0 WS jumps)

That makes you #2.

Thaks for the post Grisha, i was thinking about the same on my way to work this morning: 2 hands or 1 hand (i'm talking about pulling in wingsuit, not playing with yourself ) I'm personally used to 2 hands sometrical pull, but I see that the number of people pulling with one hand only is growing, so i just thought what it 's all about, pulling with 1 hand. Having read the "epic post" from Dorkzonehero i kinda think i will stay with 2 hand at least for a while
